These estimates are based on average nitrogen concentrations for each source, the number of animals in the facility and the plant available nitrogen application rates shown in the second column. Lagoon sludge contains nutrients and organic matter remaining after treatment and application of the effluent. At clean out, this material must be utilized for crop production and applied at agronomic rates. In most cases, the priority nutrient is nitrogen but other nutrients including phosphorous, copper and zinc can also be limiting. Since nutrient levels are generally very high, application of sludge must be carefully applied. Sites must first be evaluated for their suitability for sludge application. Ideally, effluent spray fields should not be used for sludge application. If this is not possible, care should betaken not to load effluent application fields with high amounts of copper and zinc so that additional effluent cannot be applied. On sites vulnerable to surface water moving to streams and lakes, phosphorous is a concern. Soils containing very high phosphorous levels may also be a concern.

Available storage capacity is calculated as the design storage capacity in days minus the number of days of net storage volume accumulated. The start date is a value entered by the user and is defined as the date prior to applying nutrients to the first crop in the plan at which storage volume in the lagoon or holding pond is equal to zero. Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and less than or equal to the design storage capacity of the facility. If the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage capacity, this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated. If available storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design storage volume of the structure. Either of these situations indicates that the planned application interval in the waste utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity.

SUBJECT: Operation Review Notice of Referral for Thomas Hudson Farm, Facility Number 82-394 Sampson County Dear Mr. and Mrs. Hudson, On October 30, 2002, an operation review was conducted of the Thomas Hudson Farm. facility number 82-394, in Sampson County. This review, undertaken in accordance with G.S. 143-215.1 OD, is one of two visits scheduled for all subject animal operations in 2002. The Division of Water Quality will conduct a second compliance inspection. During the operation review, the following item was noted: • Failure to keep current pumping records, soil test results, and waste analysis results on file at the farm. Past operation reviews Iand compliance inspections have noted this deficiency as well. It was for these reasons that your operation was referred to the Division of Water Quality for further investigation and possible enforcement action. G.S. 143-215.10E requires staff from the Division of Soil and Water Conservation to notif}, the Division of Water Quality and the owner/operator of these observed violations. A copy of the operation review is enclosed for your information. Site findings and recommended corrective actions as discussed are noted in the comment sections. Please remember that in order for your facility to be in compliance with environmental regulations, animal waste can not be discharged into the waters of the State, and the animal waste collection, treatment, storage and disposal systems must be properly sized, maintained and operated under the responsible charge of a certified operator. 1614 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1614 Phone:919-733-2302 1 FAX: 919-715-3559 1 Internet: www.enr_state.nc.us/DSWC/ AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY 1 AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER - 5 % RECYCLED / 10% POST CONSUMER PAPER The Division of Soil and Water Conservation appreciates your cooperation with this Operation Review.

OFFICE Subject: Fertilizer Application Recordkeeping Animal Waste Management System Facility Number 82-394 Sampson County This letter is being sent to clarify the recordkeeping requirement for Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN) application on fields that are part of your Certified Animal Waste Management Plan. In order to show that the agronomic loading rates for the crops being grown are not being exceeded, you must keep records of all sources of nitrogen that are being added to these sites. This would include nitrogen from all types of animal waste as well as municipal and industrial sludges/residuals, and commercial fertilizers. Bed nning January 1, 2000, all nitrogen sources applied to land receiving animal waste are required to be kept on the appropriate recordkeeping forms (i.e. IRR1, IRR2, DRY1, DRY2, DRY3, SLUR1, SLUR2, SLD 1, and SLD2) and maintained in the facility records for review. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) compliance inspectors and Division of Soil and Water operation reviewers will review all recordkeeping during routine inspections. Facilities not documenting all sources of nitrogen application will be subject to an appropriate enforcement action. Please be advised that nothing in this letter should be taken as removing from you the responsibility or liability for failure to comply with any State Rule, State Statute, Local County Ordinance, or permitting requirement.

It was noted that the facility did not have any dedicated spray fields on which to land apply waste generated at the farm. Uponfurther inspection, it was discovered that waste from your farm had been applied to the spray fields serving the Ted Moore Swine Farm In addition, no pumping records, lagoon analysis, and soil sample results were present at the farm site on the date of the inspection. Therefore, you are required to cease applying waste from your farm on Mr. Moore's spray fields unless Mr. Moore's certified animal waste management plan is modified to reflect the additional nitrogen loading However, you are strongly urged to immediately establish the land you have recently cleared with a winter cover crop (e.g. rye grass) so that it is no longer necessary to use Mr. Moore's land for waste application. It is also required that you keep accurate pumping records, up to date lagoon analysis, and annual soil analysis results at you farm site at all times Please notify this office in writing by no later than November 17, 1997 at the address located on the bottom of this page as to the actions taken or proposedto be taken to resolve these deficiencies. 225 Green Street, Suite 714 FAX 910-0"707 Fayettev fle, North Carolina 28301-5043 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer Telephone 910-486 1541 50% recycied/10% post -consumer paper Page 2 Mr. Hudson 10/6197 Nothing in this letter should be taken as absolving this facility of the responsibility and liability of any violations that have resulted or may result from these deficiencies. if you have any questions concerning this matter, please feel free to contact me at (910)486- 1541.

This waste utilization plan uses nitrogen as the limiting nutrient. Waste should be analy=d before each application cycle. Annual soil tests are strongly encouraged so that all plant nutrients can be balanced for realistic yields of the crop to be grown. Several factors are important in implementing your waste utilization plan in order to maximize the fertilizer value of the waste and to ensure that it is applied in an eaviro=entaIly safe manner. Always apply waste based on the needs of the crop to be grown and the nutrient content of the waste. Do not apply more nitrogen than the crop can utilize. Soil types are important as they have different infiltration rates, leaching potentials, cation exchange capacities, and available water holding capacities.. Normally waste shall not be applied to land eroding at greater than 5 tons per acre per year. With special precautions, waste may be applied to land eroding at up to 10 tons per acre per year. Do not apply waste on saturated soils, when it is raining, or when the surface is frozen. Either of these conditions may result in runoffto surface waters which is not allowed under DEM regulations. Wind conditions should also be considered to avoid driR and downwind odor problems. To maximize the value of nutrients for crop production and to reduce the potential for pollution, the waste should be applied to a growing crop or applied to bare ground not more than 30 days prior to planting. Injecting the waste or disking will conserve nutrients and reduce odor problems. The estimated acres needed to apply the animal wane is based on typical nutrient content for this type of facility. Acreage requirements should be based on the waste analysis report from your waste management facility. Attached you will fmd information on proper sampling tccluuques, preparation, and transfer of waste samples to the lab for analysis.

Any discharge of waste which reaches surface water is prohibited. Illegal discharges are subject to the asse,ssmeat of civil penalties of $10,000 per day by the Dbirision of Enviroamental Management for every day the discharge continues_ 2.. Tice Field OfEce must have docum=tation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has long term access to adequate land on which to properly apply the waste_ If the producer does not own adequate Iand to properly dispose of waste, he shall provide MRCS with a copy of a written agreement (sample enclosed) with a landowner who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the lamd for waste application for the life expectancy of the production facility. It is the responsibility of the owner of the facility to secure an update of the Waste Utilization Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method ofuz intion, or available land. 3. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the Nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based on soil type, available moisture, historical data, climate conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of application for -other nutrients. 4. AnimaI waste may be applied to land that has a Resource Management System (RMS) or an Alternative Conservation System (ACS).' If an ACS is used the soil loss shall be no greater than I0 tons per acre per year and appropriate filter strips will be used where runoffleaves the field. These filter strips will be in addition to 'Buffers" required by DEM. [See FOTG Standard 393 - Filter Strips and Standard 390 (Interim) - Riparian Forest Buffers.] 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when the wind is blowing. 6. When aaimal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, it -will be soil uicorliorated ou conventionally tilled cropland. When applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste ruay be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding. (See "Weather and Ciiinate in North Carolina" in the Technical Reference - Environment file for guidance.) REQU=D SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil iaMtration rate such that runoff does not occur oEsite or to surface witers and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should'occur m order to control conditions conducive to odor or flies and provide uniformity of application... 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that no more than 20 to 25 percent of the leaf area is covered. 10. Waste nutrients shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for Ieachi.ng. Waste nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop on bare soil. 11. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 25 feet to surface water. This distance may be reduced for waters that are aot pereaaW provided adequate vegetative filter strips are present. (See Standard 393 - Filter Strips) 12. Animal waste shall not be applied close_ than 100 feet to wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied close: than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the Iandowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of- ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways. or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted wetlands provided they have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste should not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and only then at agronomic rates provided the application causes no runoff or dri(i from the site. F REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS (continued) 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdoWn facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system 17. Lagoons and other uncovered waste containunent structures must maintain a maim operating level to provide adequate storage for a 25-year, 24-hour storm event is addition to the one (I) foot mandatory freeboard. 18. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). If needed, special vegetation shall be provided for these areas and shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species, etc. are limited to areas where conside-ed appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Lagoon berms .and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge. 19. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution and erosion. 20. Waste handling structures, piping, pups, reels, etc_, should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site.

The General Permit was issued in accordance with the directive of Senate Bill 733 (Session Law 2003-28). In accordance with your application received on December 9, 2004 and in accordance with the directive of Senate Bill 733, we are hereby forwarding to you this Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued to Thomas & Martha Hudson, authorizing the operation of the subject animal waste collection, treatment, storage and land application system in accordance with General Permit AWG100000. The issuance of this COC supercedes and terminates your previous COC Number AWS820394 which expires October 1, 2004. This approval shall consist of the operation of this system including, but not limited to, the management of animal waste from the Thomas Hudson Farm, located in Sampson County, with an animal capacity of no greater than an annual average of 1400 Feeder to Finish swine and the application to land as specified in the facility's Certified Animal Waste Management Plan (CAWMP). If this is a Farrow to Wean or Farrow to Feeder operation, there may also be one boar for each 15 sows. Where boars are unneccessary, they may be replaced by an equivalent number of sows. Any of the sows may be replaced by gilts at a rate of 4 gilts for every 3 sows The COC shall be effective from the date of issuance until September 30, 2009. Pursuant to this COC, you are authorized and required to operate the system in conformity with the conditions and limitations as specified in the General Permit, the facility's CAWMP, and this COC. An adequate system for collecting and maintaining the required monitoring data and operational information must be established for this facility. Any increase in waste production greater than the certified design capacity or increase in number of animals authorized by this COC (as provided above) will require a modification to the CAWMP and this COC and must be corn feted prior to actual increase in either wastewater flow or number of animals.
